I seek refuge in the Most Merciful lest I waver
I seek refuge with the Most Merciful lest I incline
I seek refuge in the Most Merciful lest I should sway
At the music of jinn who made a fearsome display,
To the music of jinn that showed terror
To the music of Jinn who manifested terror,
وَأَوقَدَتand they kindled نيرانَهاtheir fires تَغويلاto frighten
وَأَوقَدَت نيرانَها تَغويلا
وَقَرَعتand they beat مَعalong with عَزفِهاtheir music الطُبولاthe drums
وَقَرَعت مَع عَزفِها الطُبولا
And kindled their fires to frighten,
And ignited its fires to lead astray
And kindled their fires to beguile and destroy,
And beat the drums along with their music.
And beat drums along with its music
And struck the drums to accompany their playing.
